Hyderabad, Feb 22: TRS senior leader T Harish Rao has said that if the TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu campaigned for his party in the Telangana region, the party would lose even the few votes it might have polled otherwise.

Talking to the media here on Wednesday, Harish Rao has expressed anger at Naidu’s statement that he would expose TRS in each and every village. 

He said villagers have already exposed Naidu and his party. He has reminded Naidu that his party has lost deposits in the 12 seats where by-elections were held earlier. He said people were ready to deal the same blow to the TDP.

Harish said Naidu had no moral right to ask the votes of the people of Telangana. He has questioned why Naidu was not coming forward for a resolution on Telangana in the Assembly though he was claiming that he was not against Telangana. He said Naidu was interested only in becoming the Chief Minister again and commented that he was not even worried about the martyrs of Telangana.

Demanding that Congress and TDP should come forward to pass a resolution on Telangana, Harish has alleged that both the parties had colluded to betray Telangana. He said the government should say when the Telangana resolution would be passed, if it wanted the Assembly to function smoothly.
